ORIGINAL: Boucanier Is it because veal is alleged to taste like human flesh? Well finally hehe, though technically its the other way around Human flesh is alleged to taste like veal...slightly older veal if i'm not mistaken... oh I got the quote right here from one William Buehler Seabrook, reporter from the new york times, who was able to obtain a nice healthy hunk of human flesh from a young man's cadaver, who had died in an accident, he went home, cooked it a good varity of ways...and his report follows: "It was like good, fully developed veal, not young, but not yet beef. It was very definitely like that, and it was not like any other meat I had ever tasted. It was so nearly like good, fully developed veal that I think no person with a palate of ordinary, normal sensitiveness could distinguish it from veal. It was mild, good meat with no other sharply defined or highly characteristic taste such as for instance, goat, high game, and pork have. The steak was slightly tougher than prime veal, a little stringy, but not too tough or stringy to be agreeably edible. The roast, from which I cut and ate a central slice, was tender, and in color, texture, smell as well as taste, strengthened my certainty that of all the meats we habitually know, veal is the one meat to which this meat is accurately comparable." So what does this mean o me? well simple, should I got to my local little italian hole in the wall with anyone of you fine folks, i'll take a bite of my veal parma and look at you and realize...hey, this tastes just like you...if I was to cut off a good steak or particularly tender muscle off your body, and prepare it the way old joe does...this...would be you. Or the waitress who served us...this is what she would taste like too...she looks tender enough dosent she? and so, everytime I even look at veal, I realize Veal = People...thus, I dont even want to taste it.
